We stayed at the Peppercorn for 4 nights over Têt and only left the resort once - perfect considering that most places are closed over this period. The resort put effort into sharing Vietnamese culture over the festival, and arranged a fireworks display for New Years Eve and a traditional Lion Dance for New Years Day. We didn’t get bored for even a moment, and spent time sleeping, reading and relaxing, even taking the kayak out onto the water at sunset. The breakfast was delicious and changed every day. It included a buffet as well as cooked-to-order options. Lots of delicious fruit! They’re quite proud that the fruit jams and sourdough are made on-site. The à la carte menu offered a wide variety of choices and even after 8 meals we still hadn’t tried everything. The fresh summer rolls were a highlight of most meals! We indulged in some time at the spa and particularly enjoyed the rejuvenating herbal hair wash. We loved our room on the seafront and it had a good ac, acceptable shower, and fast internet. It would have been nice if there was a net curtain or something because if we wanted any privacy, the only choice was to close the heavy block-out curtains. The facilities are a bit shabby - the outdoor gym in a state of disrepair, the pathways uneven, and there was lots of rubble and building material randomly lying around. We wondered if there had recently been a big storm, or if it was just mess from building more chalets. The staff were accommodating and polite, although expect that the service will be quite slow because everything is personalized.
Peppercorn Resort in Phu Quoc offers a warm, community vibe unlike big hotels. It’s peaceful by the ocean yet close to VinWonders Water Park. We enjoyed the pool, beach, and free kayaks. The restaurant was excellent, and their surprise birthday cake for my son showed true hospitality. A fantastic stay!
